– Vintage MTG Cube 540 (Unpowered / Steve Cube) — https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/strongestcube

Origin / why this list exists
“The Steve Cube (High Octane Unpowered)” is one of the most-cited unpowered Vintage lists—often recommended as a starting point when people want that “best cards ever” feeling without Black Lotus / Moxen / Sol Ring warping every draft.

What’s in the list / how it plays
You still get real Vintage archetypes and power plays, but the gameplay breathes more. Drafting and sequencing matter more, and you’ll see fewer non-games decided by a single opener. It’s still very strong—it’s just strong in a way your whole pod can enjoy.

Who it’s for

• You want “Vintage cube gameplay” but prefer less lottery fast mana.

• Your group likes high power but values interactive games.

• You want a 540 that’s iconic, proven, and easy to recommend.
